Soul-Transmigrated into Li Longji: Turning the Tide of the An Lushan Rebellion

Chen Ye, a food delivery rider who dropped out of middle school, learned about the Tang Dynasty through historical games and short videos. After an accident, his soul transmigrates into the body of Li Longji, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, in his later years. By then, the golden age is already hiding a crisis. An Lushan is scheming to rebel, and the flames of the An Lushan Rebellion are about to sweep across the land. The Tang Dynasty stands on the brink of ruin. Chen Ye draws on his knowledge of the Tang Dynasty’s history and the unorthodox tricks he picked up navigating the streets. He presents an emperor’s authority to steady the court, while inwardly holding on to the perspective of an ordinary person. Unbound by rigid conventions, he puts his shrewdness, playful schemes, and book-learned statecraft to use. From the start, trapped in a desperate situation, he relies on his foresight to anticipate events at every turn, using down-to-earth, unconventional tactics to check treacherous ministers and divide the rebel forces. From adapting on the spot to defuse one crisis after another, to foiling plots again and again, he continues to grow amid the turmoil of a chaotic age. Watch as an ordinary man from the streets takes control of the Tang Dynasty’s imperial power, fights against the odds, and turns the tide of the An Lushan Rebellion to protect the empire’s vast foundations!
